Quote of the day

A solid yet squalid majority in the 450-seat national legislature this week trampled on the most cherished democratic right – the right to vote for and choose government representatives. In postponing the May 30 local elections for a second time (they were originally scheduled for this fall), 250 megalomaniac Verkhovna Rada lawmakers signaled a retreat from representative democracy.

Many Ukrainians are relieved that President Victor Yushchenko will be leaving the political stage soon. During his five years of presidency, he failed many expectations and broke many promises. He grew alienated from his own nation, and voters turned on him decisively on Jan. 17.
